1897-P Morgan Silver Dollar NGC/PCGS MS64

Low-Mintage 1897-P Morgan Silver Dollar

What an oddity! In 1897 the San Francisco, New Orleans and Philadelphia Mint all struck Morgan Silver Dollars, with Philadelphia striking one to three million less than the other two. But despite being the smallest mintage of the year, and a small mintage on its own (just 2.822 million struck), the 1897-P Morgan remains the most affordable of the three! It’s also in great condition, coming in Choice Uncirculated Mint State-64 (MS64) condition graded by either the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC) or the professional Coin Grading Service PCGS). A great find for any collection! Grading service varies.

With its place and history combined with its high grade and the fact that as little as 15% of all Morgans still exist in any condition and you have a piece of America’s past you can’t afford to miss! Add the 1897-P Morgan Silver Dollar to your cart today!
